Pattern recognition
Algorithmic thinking
3
Q
What is decomposition
A
Involves breaking down a complex problem or system into smaller parts that are more manageable and easier to understand. The smaller parts can then be examined and solved, or designed individually, as they are simpler to work with.
4
Q
What is abstraction
A
Filtering out unnecessary details to focus on the necessary ones
5
Q

A
Recognising what different problems have in common
6
